The White House Project's 2010 EPIC Awards are a celebration of women's leadership in the media and in popular culture. The April 7, 2010 event took place at the IAC Building in New York City, designed by Frank Gehry. Among those in attendance were Meryl Streep, Jill Scott, Gina Davis, and Megan Mullally. Several awards were presented to women making a positive impact through art and activism, including the Global Trailblazer Award honoring Kiran Bedi, Indian social activist and Asia Nobel Prize winner.
